Thought of You Today

Hello Everyone!!! Today's card was made using this week's Mojo Monday Sketch and I was also able to play with the new A Warm Hello stamp set by JustRite Stampers! This is a 1 5/8th circle size set of 9 borders and centres - which I thought would be perfect for this sketch!

I started with a base of aqua bazzill and layered with white, Pumpkin Pie and some MME Mabel DP. The horizontal panel is more Pumpkin punched with the EK single curve punch, topped with aqua and some white organdy ribbon. The vertical panel is white topped with more Mabel DP and then wrapped around the whole card is some white satin ribbon. I stamped the sentiment from A Warm Hello in Memento Tuxedo Black and cut out with Small Circle Nestabilites, matting with the smallest of the Lacey Circle Nestabilities. The border was stamped in Memento Tangelo and cut out with Large Circle Nestabilities, matted with Pumpkin cut out with Small Circle Nestabilities and matted again using aqua cut with Blossom 3 Nestabilities!! You know the best thing???? You can do them all at once with the Grand Calibur!!!! Talk about time saver!!!! :) I popped the whole sentiment panel up on foam tape and added a bow to the ribbon. I realised I don't own any clear rhinestones, so I coloured them with a YR18 Copic Marker and voila.......matching embellishments!! :)

Great DPs! Just bought them the other day at my LSS at 60% off and can't wait to use them. Thanks for the preview :) Lovely take on the mojo sketch and your layering on the sentiment panel is fabulous. Now you have me wanting that blossom nestie set LOL!

So glad to hear Edna gave you my hug :) Have a blessed Easter weekend with a cyber (((hug))) for good measure.
